I'm just making fun of the only-demo-was-great attitude, that's all. The EP was good but Haxan was superior and I could never understand people thinking otherwise, especially those dismissing the latter completely in favour of the former.
Anyhow, only Treading The Darker Paths was their really good stuff, wasn't it? Ha!_________________A good hippie is a dead hippie

ODD SPIRITUALITY was not the demo but okay. I think it was a killer release and has two of my favorite songs they did. HAXAN was top notch from start to finish and easily my favorite release from that year. SPECTRES really was the best material they wrote so far I did not expect it to be so fucking good and have so much dynamics to it. POWERFUL STUFF indeed.

Really curious how HENBANE will sound cuz I never really know what the GHOULES have cooking up their sleeves.

would be a sick release_________________if you haven't had to drive 2 hours to meet up with some sketchy dude from craigslists to check out his vinyls for sale in his grandmoms sub basement then you aren't truly heavy metal hunting!

IMO they are among the best in black metal today, not too mention they use a sample on THE IMPURE WEDDING from one of the best fucking movies ever POSSESSION....that's major points.

Andrzej Zulawski and Isabelle Adjani must feel proud of that (at least they should) ; yes, this movie is a masterpiece without any fuckin' doubt.
And CULTES DES GHOULES is undoubtedly one of the darkest horde of nowadays (expectations are high for "HENBANE", but I'm sure CDG will not disappoint).

Going to have to agree with this. So much that when I get my tax check it is going to a Haxan LP.

Definitely a must have on LP. I really want the HAXAN hoodie or longsleeve but it's so impossible to find I'll keep looking who knows maybe one will pop up. If you buy the HAXAN lp don't pay the ridiculous prices on discogs try doing a trade or something of the like cuz it's like 80-100 bucks way too expensive man.
